sans condensed (306) - Abstract Fonts

11 posts

I really like this font, it's got all of the nice features of Myriad, but a little softer (notice the slopes). And it's a nice weight, slightly lighter than a Myriad Black. I tried Identifont, but it came up with ITC Legacy, which is definitely not it :-). Thank you in advance!

Hi! The small 't' gave the hint. It's a font of the Gill Sans MT family: Gill Sans MT Extra Condensed Bold It's definitely commercial. greetz

! In need of an ID of the font used in this image. The exact typeface would be great but if not, I'd appreciate some recommendations for something similar. I've gone through the 'Condensed' category here but couldn't find anything suitable. Thanks in advance.

I created most of these categories 10 years ago, when i was still a programmer kid who hasn't been around fonts too much. Later there was a designer who suggested some of the categories, such as industrial, which i wasnt clear about but was convinced that it was needed. I can always add/remove/rename categories, just like i recently renamed "Smooth" into less ambiguous "Rounded". If you have any suggestions i will always listen. dafont's categories are flushed out more under a few headers making it easier to find a category but it has many annoying limitations which i tried to avoid on abstract fonts. For example on dafont, a font can only belong to one category, which is a HUGE downside in my opinion. Having font in multiple categories allows a visitor to find very specifically categorized fonts, such as only Sans fonts that also have Hearts. Having this many fonts without this ability to recursively restrict categories will force you to go through all sans fonts and hope that they have some fonts that have hearts and then go through all hearts since some of the sans fonts could have gone under that category because they had hearts in it. So what i am saying is Abstract Fonts has a better system but it may not be used to its full capacity. If you have ideas of how to rename some categories, delete others or create new please post here or email me. That goes for you kkat too, if you have an opinion.

I happened to notice this is one of the most popular fonts running on MyFonts, and I think it's absolutely beautiful. Clean and perfect for many modern/sans headlines. The thing is, I swear it already exists as an OpenType font -- is this a knock-off of a similar design?
